This chart brought to you by the Pew Research Center.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago

Pew Research Centre study finds that the Pew Research Centre is strongly correlated with the Chad Wojak, while all other sources are associated with the Soy or Virgin Wojaks.

CNN is just as leftwing as TrueAnon thinking-about-it

Our centrist king centrist

[-] [email protected] 42 points 2 years ago

so-true Yup, all media can be split into left and right leaning. And golly gee the left and right are just about evenly distributed, because both sides are equally extreme and need to be avoided! But not quite. The left is, of course, more extreme.

Oh, and all that crisis actor stuff that alex-karma just got successfully sued into oblivion for isn't inaccurate or fabricated info. It's just misleading blob-no-thoughts

I can't believe that the new TrueAnon CEO, Rachel Jake, has taken the pod so far to the right. I guess that softball AOC interview should have been a bigger warning sign. They didn't ask her any tough questions whatsoever!

This isn't even fun to dunk on anymore it's just sad. Joe Rogan being centrist? Union busting barstool sports being LEFT of Rogan? This is basically just someone vomiting pictures of random media outlets onto a canvas and calling it research. I wonder if I could get an AI art generator to do better. I think I'll try

Edit: I tried, I couldn't. It did generate some funny stuff but it clearly has never seen this chart. Sad.

I'm feeling this way about more and more lib shit. They never have any new bits these days.

Union busting barstool sports...

I always found barstool to be obnoxious AF whenever one of my friends would share something from it. Thanks for validating my dislike of them.

You heard it here first, folks - Ad Fontes says Maoism is center-left. We're gonna remove the landlords any day now, everybody!

noted centre-left podcast TrueAnon

Thank goodness I now have a media bias rating for my favorite news outlet, Neil deGrasse Tyson's Startalk podcast.

Is this ethics in game journalism?

I don't like woke in my games, but I still play them anyways.

I am a centrist g@mer.

TYT is to the left of TrueAnon. I want MSNBC to give brace-dark-cowboy a show like they did with Cenk.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago

TYT is to the left of WSWS!

There's so many stupid things in this infographic, it's hard to know where to start. Maybe at the famously moderate centrist, Joe Rogan

[-] [email protected] 26 points 2 years ago

Labeling RBN and JD as hyper-partisan leftists is inaccurate. They are both anti-vax, RFK stans who most recently believe the fascist Donald Trump is preferable to Joe Biden. As much as I am against neoliberals, that take is not one of the "left"

[-] [email protected] 21 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I would have bet my life on the TrueAnon icon placement being a bit...

Edit: This confirms it...we're all libs sad-boi

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Oh my fucking god these dweebs used scrorecards and wrote up a whole ass formula for this didn't they.

Okay so they dunk on both the Democrats and Republicans? +1 Left Bias, +1 Right Bias. Uh oh, they just used reasoning to make a conclusion instead of just "stating the facts" tsk tsk -1 Truthiness. If we divide the factual content density by the fallacy tendency coefficient, and take the derivative of the political bias slope...well obviously Trueanon is to the right of CNN and less factual than the NY Post!

Dorks who are impressed by this shit are just Advanced Stats nerds except they're using their vapid understanding of media criticism rather than sports to be smug about how smart and objective they are.

Love how Jimmy Dore is left of literal Trotskyists.

Black Agenda Report being the furthest left

Settlers right yet again. But seriously, they're the real deal. They platform a lot of Black organizers of the Black Radical Tradition, which makes the almost-certainly white people in charge of these shitty "media bias" sites awfully uncomfortable. And I really want to see how they feel about something like Hood Communist, another great website where you can hear what Black radicals and communists actually think instead of what paternal white losers believe is best for Black people.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

No ‘Dear White People’ Articles

The editoral staff of Hood Communist challenges all writers and organizers to center African people, the African diaspora, and the African continent in your analysis in all of your submissions to our blog.

We will no longer be publishing articles we like to call “Dear White People” posts. If the focus of your analysis is breaking down the chicanery and fuckshit of Europeans to Europeans, we encourage you to journal about that instead or alternatively join a political organization led by African and colonized people that is not dominated by crackers.

We once again want to reiterate that the Hood Communist blog is a revolutionary African nationalist political organ created with the express intent of advancing the struggle for African liberation by providing independent anti-colonial and anti-capitalist revolutionary political analysis by and for African people. “Dear White People” articles are incompatible with that object – as they center Europeans and European fuckshit – and as such are not a good fit for this blog.

lol, a great blog. Read settlers.

I love that they took the time to rate IGN. That's so funny.

This graph is mostly unreadable, but at a glance I don't see any other video game sites on there.

I need to go check out this Black Agenda Report because if Infowars isn't "most extreme" material for the right wing media I need to see what "most extreme" for left wing media looks like. My best guess is they must be calling for 200 years of white chattel enslavement by black descendants of enslaved people.

Like, is the contention of this graph that it's possible to be even more extreme right wing than Infowars?

Even looking at this from the perspective of a lib it's wrong. They put CNN to the left of Al Jazeera?

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

it's possibly made by the most dorky of pew research interns imaginable. Leafing through whatever analysis they've compiled and um ackshuallying themselves until they have a perfect curve

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
